Why do you need Travel Insurance for Sri Lanka?

The right level of travel insurance will give you the confidence to explore long-haul destinations such as Sri Lanka. You’ll have support when dealing with unexpected circumstances while you’re away. Sri Lanka Travel Insurance will give you peace of mind that you’re protected against unexpected medical bills and cancellation costs.

It’s time that you traveled with the UK’s most trusted Travel Insurance provider1.

Comprehensive cover when travelling to Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka is often known as The ‘Pearl of the Indian Ocean. With luxurious resorts and beautiful beaches, it’s easy to see why so many people want to experience all it has to offer.

Teeming with many places of religious and historical significance, you’re sure to find ancient ruins and plenty of sacred temples. Whether you’re visiting Sri Lanka to go sightseeing or to enjoy its tropical climate, you’re sure to have a trip of a lifetime.

While we hope you have a carefree trip, the unexpected can happen. Sri Lanka has no reciprocal agreement with the UK. Without travel insurance in place, you could be left with extensive medical bills.

If you need emergency medical attention, you could be repatriated to the capital, Colombo, for immediate treatment. This alone could cost you £3,840.

Medical transport from Colombo back to the UK, without insurance, would cost tens of thousands of pounds on top of that and would then depend on:

  • Your condition and how much care you require
  • The type of aircraft
  • The availability of the plane

How to choose the right level of cover for Sri Lanka

To avoid unexpected medical costs and cancellations costs, choose a travel insurance policy for Sri Lanka that includes:

Emergency medical expenses –  This will only be covered if you have declared all pre-existing medical conditions and your policy is valid. 

Repatriation to the UK – offering you medical transport to the nearest facility where you can receive immediate treatments as well as medical transportation back to the UK.

Cancellation and curtailment – covers you for irrecoverable loss due to cancellation or cutting short your holiday.

Baggage and personal property – loss of property can be devastating; however, with baggage cover included in your chosen policy you can claim for damaged, lost or stolen items.

At AllClear, we offer tailored policies to suit you:
